Nature Friday Flowers at the ABQ Botanic Garden

 

 Wow Rosy, Friday sure did roll around fast this week!

It sure did Sunny, mostly because Mama and Daddy have been running around throwing things in boxes!

That's right, I almost forgot...it's almost moving week! Wahoo!!

 Next week, while we are moving, we have prerecorded blogs ready to go. We aren't sure how much time we will have to visit everyone...

You've got that right Rosy, we'll be exploring our new backyard, barking at our new neighbors...

Well, we'll also be chasing bunn.....I mean unpacking all our clothes and toys too!!

 

But don't worry, we'll be back in time for next week's Nature Friday and we have some pretty cool stuff pre-recorded for next week too! 

 

 

 

 Anyway...we digress, let's get to this week's Nature Friday from the Albuquerque Botanic Garden!! Unfortunately, dogs aren't allowed in the park.  Even with that horrible rule in place, Mama was pretty impressed on how big the park was compared to the Humboldt Botanical Gardens. Mama didn't have time to visit the whole park in the time she was there but she did see some pretty Spring flowers!!

 

 

 There is a big castle as soon as you walk in the park!  This park is VERY child friendly and a lot of their exhibits are geared towards children.

 

 

 There were daffodils everywhere

 

 All different kinds too. Here are some with orange rimmed trumpets!

 

 

 So how big do you think the bunnies in our new backyard get, Rosy?

I don't know Sunn.....

What?? 

OH, sorry Mama, we'll get back to describing YOUR walkie.... 

 

 

 There was an atrium which had some fun tropical flowers like this Bromiliad,

 

 

a Bottle brush plant/flower,

 and this Clivia Miniata! Aren't the orange and yellow flowers

pretty?

 

 

They even had Calla Lilies, just like back in California! 

 

When she was heading back to the car (to get home in time for afternoon cookies) she came across this pretty hybrid tulip the "Tulipa Ancilla"

(thank goodness for Google picture search)  

 

 

 The least thing Mama saw as she headed out of the park was this beautiful Red Breasted Robin! A sure sign that Spring is here!!

Mama made a video of her visit to the park if you like that kind of thing(videos without dogs!). 

Plus she has a park membership, so I'm sure we'll be seeing more of the park through the seasons.

You can also watch it HERE, on YouTube

 

We're wishing everyone a pawsome weekend filled with flowers!!!
